Provided is a shielding label comprising: a shield layer; a cover layer disposed on a first side of the shield layer, and a removable adhesive layer disposed on at least a portion of a second side of the shield layer, wherein the shield layer provides electro-magnetic shielding characteristics so as to prevent the exchange of data between an RFID article adjacent the shielding label and an external device when the component is located in the read range of the external device.

Electromagnetic shielding label

A shielding article includes a polymeric conductive layer and a protective layer disposed adjacent the polymeric conductive layer. The polymeric conductive layer provides electromagnetic shielding characteristics so as to prevent receipt of data from a radio frequency information component by an external device when the component is located between the external device on one side and the polymeric conductive and protective layers on the other side. The shielding article may be shaped to substantially surround the radio frequency information component.

Electromagnetic shielding article

A sensor assembly has a plurality of sensing elements configured to be positioned within a seat of a vehicle. Each of the sensing elements include an output signal indicating the presence or absence of an occupant. The sensor assembly includes a cable with a plurality of conductors that are in electrical communication with the output signals of the sensing elements. The sensor assembly further provides a non-conductive spacer positioned between the cable and the plurality of sensing elements. A method for providing a sensor assembly having a spacer between sensing elements and conductors attached thereto to reduce unwanted coupling of signals onto the conductors is also disclosed.
